McCrone Associates is committed to providing the best service possible to each client. In order to serve you best, we ask that you send as much information as possible about the nature of the samples, the problem that needs to be addressed and the types of analyses requested.

It is always best to contact a McCrone staff scientist prior to submitting any samples in order that the problem can be discussed, estimates concerning cost and turn-around time can be provided, and the project leader can be prepared to receive the project.

If you have been working with a project leader already on the project or have worked with a specific project leader in the past, please contact them directly. Otherwise, please call us at 1-630-887-7100 and you will be connected with someone who can assist you.

You can also browse the Services section of this Web site and call or e-mail one of the contacts associated with a particular sample or industry type.

Once completed and signed, package the form with your samples and submit it to the address below. In addition to including the completed sample submission form with your samples, you are welcome to send a letter of explanation, and/or e-mail the completed form to your project leader, if known, prior to shipment. To submit DEA Schedule I and Schedule II drugs, please contact the Administrative Assistant to the President of McCrone Associates, Inc. for a DEA-222 form prior to sample shipment.

Samples should be shipped in a manner to ensure their integrity is maintained and limit their degradation.

Please include all of the following in the package containing the samples:

Samples

Completed Sample Submission Form

MSDS (all applicable to sample)

Purchase Order or Other Payment Means

Proper Hazard Labeling & Packaging

If the purchase order is not available at the time the samples are shipped, the purchase order should be forwarded as soon as possible to the project leader via fax number 630-887-7417 or e-mail. Please retain a copy of the sample submission form for your records.
